Talk:Structure set

I'm not interested in making an account and committing to doing the wiki editor thing properly, but I hope I can shed some light on something with a drive by comment. Regarding:

>spread_type: (optional, defaults to linear) One of linear or triangular​^{[more information needed]}.

These refer to linear distributions, and triangular distributions. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_distribution

Also see: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/reference/content/worldgenreference/examples/jigsawstructuresets

According to the microsoft link, the Linear Spread type is rand(x), whereas Triangular spread type is (rand(x) + rand(x)) / 2 on bedrock. Seems likely to be the same for Java. 185.219.141.115 08:58, 6 October 2025 (UTC)
